Christians: Would you save Jesus if you could?
You are a Christian. You love Jesus. If you could go back in time and save him, would you? To stop him from incredible torture? Bare in mind that if you save him, you will be accountable for your sins. You won't be able to throw your hands in the air and I say "I'm a sinner!! Save me!!" evertime you do something wrong. Rather you will have to be a good person. If you're not a good person you will go to hell.
So what will it be? Save Jesus and be responsible for your own sins or let him die and have the get out of jail free card?

I would do everything in my power to save him, just as I would with anyone else I found in harms way. If there is anything(1) I can do to help someone in need, I would find it morally reprehensible not to do so. If Jesus' destiny was to die, and this was decided by God, then either my intervention would be destined to fail, or Jesus would simply die at a later point, outside of my ability to intervene. If, somehow, Gods plan to save mankind from their many sins was completely derailed by an act of altruism (of all things!) I would find the irony delicious. 1-I should probably clarify 'anything' here. Anything, in this cases, represents what I am able to do, with a reasonable chance of success, and without putting myself or my family under significant hardship or risk. Directly opposing the Roman military, for example, would likely be a death sentence for myself and my family, and as such would not be considered an option. Similarly, working at a soup kitchen and donating to help the poor are things I can do, but I would not invite the homeless to stay at my home, nor would I donate beyond what I can bear comfortably without impacting my families welfare (including saving for college for my children).

Strawman. You are twisting my words to make my personal beliefs easier to attack. Try being honest and saying that you disagree. Jesus is the only way to be saved. John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Acts 4: 12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Side: No
